Here are today's best bets.

NFL Best Bets

Kansas City Chiefs @ Buffalo Bills

When we think of these teams and QBs facing off, we immediately think of a shootout and lots of offense. To be fair, the last two playoff matchups between these teams have seen over 62 points scored in both games.

However, these teams faced off in Kansas City in December, where we saw a final score of 20-17, and neither team reached 400 total yards of offense. That said, we won’t overthink this one and go with Josh Allen Over 225.5 passing yards.

He’s hit this number in five of the past eight games, with two of the unders being last week’s win over Pittsburgh and their blowout win against the Cowboys in December, where Allen attempted only 15 passes. Take Allen Over 225.5 passing yards with confidence, as these teams can run the score up quickly.

Josh Allen Over 225.5 Passing Yards (-115)

Indiana Pacers @ Phoenix Suns

The Pacers will finish up a six-game road trip on Sunday, the last five all coming against the Western Conference. They'll take on the Phoenix Suns, who have been on fire recently, 9-3 SU over their last 12 games, to get back squarely into the playoff picture. The Suns sit as 5-point favorites for this matchup. This is due partially to the Pacers' schedule, which has them playing their third game in four nights. Typically this is a disastrous spot for a team, but the Pacers may have an atypical edge.

Earlier in the week, the Pacers shook up the NBA world by trading for Pascal Siakam. Indiana hopes he and Tyrese Haliburton can be the core they build a championship contender around. The duo made their debut together on Friday. Not only was this Siakam's first game with Indiana, but it was also Haliburton's return to the lineup after a brief injury absence. Although this is Indiana's third game in four days, their two-star players are pretty well-rested.

Season-long numbers indicate this line should probably be closer to a 2.5-point spread in favor of Phoenix. Indiana’s schedule and Phoenix's hot streak have inflated this line a tad too high. Even the Suns have been winning; they're only 4-6 ATS in the last 10. Phoenix has had some issues with the more elite offenses they've faced, and Indiana is second in adjusted offensive rating.

 Even in a bad schedule spot for Indiana, they're the right side here. With Haliburton and now Siakam in the lineup, the Pacers are live for a cover on Sunday.

Pick: Pacers +5 (-110)

NHL Best Bets

Minnesota Wild @ Carolina Hurricanes

The Hurricanes are a team that has so many ways to beat you. They are allowing a shade under three goals, but this blue has been exceptional all season, allowing just 25 shots per game. The depth they have on offense is always what makes them great: six players with 10 or more goals and nine with 25 or more points.

We knew the Wild wouldn't have a good offense, but that didn't make them a playoff team last year. They were getting outstanding performances from Marc-Andre Fleury and Filip Gustavsson as a tandem, but it hasn't happened this year. Gustavsson has especially struggled, allowing 3.34 goals per game and -2.3 goals saved above expected. 

Carolina will have the advantage during every shift, and if Minnesota can't get good goaltending, this will be an easy win for the Canes.

Bet: Wild -1.5 (+124)
